getting this error

[laurensius]

I get the same issue. Has anyone managed to solve it?

[FoRavel]

I had the same exact same issue after I upgraded my react-native version to 0.74.0. I finally decided to revert back to my initial version which was 0.72.7 and it solved the issue.

I also reverted "@types/react": "18.2.79" to "^18.0.24", which was my initial version before upgrade.

I am getting this issue as well.
[!] Invalid Podfile` file: uninitialized constant Pod::Podfile::FlipperConfiguration.

from /Users/xxxxx/Documents/xxxxx/xxxxx_iOS/ios/Podfile:18

-------------------------------------------

# ```

flipper_config = ENV['NO_FLIPPER'] == "1" ? FlipperConfiguration.disabled : FlipperConfiguration.enabled

-------------------------------------------`

[gibo77]

Debugging React Native apps with Flipper is deprecated in React Native 0.73.

[gibo77]

In my use case, I don't use Flipper. So I removed them in Podsfile.
Line 18

...(process.env.NO_FLIPPER ? { 'react-native-flipper': { platforms: { ios: null } } } : {}),

```

#flipper_config = ENV['NO_FLIPPER'] == "1" ? FlipperConfiguration.disabled : FlipperConfiguration.enabled

Line 43

you should disable the next line.

#:flipper_configuration => flipper_config,

An absolute path to your application root.

Basically put # before the Flipper line on the two lines.

Then run "pod install" inside "iOS" folder.

It will run for a while. For me it took few minutes.
Pod install took 286 [s] to run

Debugging React Native apps with Flipper is deprecated in React Native 0.73.

How do I enforce that in an Expo app?

[gibo77]

I am not in Expo.
Can you put # on the Flipper at Podfile? This are only two lines as stated above.
Then run "pod install" in iOS folder.
After that it will automatically delete the Flipper since this is not used anymore by React Native after 0.73.

Podfiles are abstracted away in Expo, so no, unfortunately.

[ChrisWiles]

Same issue, using RN 0.74.0

Invalid Podfile file: uninitialized constant Pod::Podfile::FlipperConfiguration.

[brentvatne]

@orome
Podfiles are abstracted away in Expo, so no, unfortunately.

they aren't actually, you can run npx expo prebuild -p ios to generate the Podfile. (this is called continuous native generation).

can someone share a minimal reproducible example?

[ChrisWiles]

I would love to upgrade to React Native 0.74. According to the React documentation, Flipper can still be used, but this bug is currently preventing the upgrade.

[brentvatne]

@ChrisWiles - can you share a minimal reproducible example?

[tischenkoa]

Hi. Is there a solution for Flipper to work with React Native 0.74?

[sashakoliychuk]

Have you managed to find any solutions for using Flipper with RN 0.74?

[ferologics]

the solution is to remove any mention of flipper from your outdated Podfile

[abdalla-finder]

Any update? im using react native 0.74

[raphaelinmanage]

is there any solution for this?

[yurachumak]

I've experienced a freeze during the splashscreen in the ios Release version with 0 errors and logs. In Debug mode everything worked as a charm. I think I had a corrupted ios/appname.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj file.

I recommend to install a clean react native app. Use a command in cli npx @react-native-community/cli@latest init YOUR_APP_NAME You can even select the exact version of react-native (because it's installing the latest one). After that I moved my package.json and made all installs. In the end I compared my project.pbxproj file with the new one. Add some missing lines and it start to work.

I hope that'll help someone because I spend too much time on that

[farshid1]

If you have not made any custom changes to the files in your ios and android directories and are ignoring them, you can safely delete both directories and run npx expo prebuild to regenerate them.

I also encountered an issue related to Hermes (which I don't use), and I was able to resolve it by upgrading CocoaPods to the latest

Hope this helps!

i have commented it out and even deleted but still get the same issue
